SOLUTION: Some Music Won't Play After Upgrading Your iPhone To iOS7

Glad to hear you're up and running. Later.

I had this problem on my iPhone 4s where only the songs that I had downloaded directly from iTunes played, but for whatever reason it's began fixing itself. When I plugged in my phone to my iMac and went onto iTunes, on the "On This Phone" section, all my music that wasn't playing (Had a red square) beside it was in a dull gray with a dotted circle where the tick selection should be. The dotted circle began to fill on each song and began redownloading to my phone again!

However, my recently added music (not downloaded from iTunes store) still isn't going to my music which started happening just before any of this,

Hi,

Im sorry, but I've tried all proposed solutions mentioned here, but none of all didn't work !

I had no problem at all on my previous 4S with IO 7.0.2 , but since last week I get my brand new 5S with IO 7.0.4 & its only a mess to sync all my music on this phone 😠😠

Apple YOU HAVE A BIG PROBLEM ⚠!!!!

where do I find the web chat?

I'm going to try your fix, as I am haing the same problem with the red circle around red swuare and it is also only on songs from CD. But I am afraid when I do the restor (the way you did it) will I lose all of my contacts since I am restoring the iphone to factory whatever its called (o;

Just make sure you do a backup of your phone first so you can restore all of your contacts, etc. after you do the restore.

That was talked about a couple pages back, along with how to do the restore.

Thanks thanks & more thanks. This has been driving me nuts & it worked. Such a simple fix.

I have tried all of these things, turned off music slider under the automatic downloads. Then I tried turning off find my phone,then I did a restore on my Iphone 5 and restored it and this didn't work. then I deleated my Icloud account and synced all off my music and playlists that I had selected to sync in Itunes

After you follow the solution, resync the music files...I noticed it started to load and then i pressed play. It started to play while syncing the rest of the song on my Ipad2.

Yes !!!

This worked.

I did what Djpens said, and after synchronizing my playlist around 5 times now i can play music normally on my iphone5, IOS7!!

Thanks! After reading many Apple posts on this same subject, your response was spot on. I now have all my music back on my iPhone, not just some songs.

I am going to make this easy for everyone... all i had to do was go to Settings > click General > click Reset > click Reset All Settings. After the iphone has reset, sync your phone with itunes and the songs should be working again. easy.

I've been with Apple for a long time and put up with lots of problematic upgrades. But if I don't get this to work soon, I may have to try a droid. How is this bug not fixed by now?
